Simulation-Enhanced Learning in Nuclear Medicine: Practical-Use SCAFFOLD.

Simulation-based education has emerged as a strategic response to placement scarcity, workforce strain, and the increasing complexity of nuclear medicine practice. The theoretic principles and simulation architecture are transformed into practical implementation strategies across the nuclear medicine technologist training continuum. Simulation is positioned as a calibrated scaffold that reduces co...

Assessing the Feasibility of Wearable Devices for Physiological Monitoring and Heat Risk Prediction in Outdoor Agricultural Workers.

BACKGROUND: Outdoor agricultural workers experience significant heat exposure, yet few studies have evaluated whether wearable sensors can reliably measure continuous physiological responses in real field conditions. This pilot study examined the feasibility and predictive utility of core temperature, hydration, heart rate, and movement data collected from commercially available wearables. METHODS...
